Energy Industry and Competency Framework (EICF)
The EICF is a collaboration between EDPMO, the Ministry of Education and the oil and gas industry with the aim of increasing job readiness and competencies among Bruneians in the energy industry - in line with one of the aspirations of Vision 2035 - to produce a well-educated and highly skilled workforce.
The minister said the Mechanic Training Centre provides potential recruits with the required skills that are accredited internationally.
“This means that this is not only for Brunei. Once you get these sets of skills, you can go and work abroad as well. Some of these skills are very much in demand, even in this region,” he said.
YB Pehin Dato Hj Mohd Yasmin noted that there are currently 22 technical skills, and from time to time, they will be reviewing the framework and the numbers will increase.
